A property that passes from a topological space to every subspace with respect to the relative topology. Examples are first and second countability, metrizability, the ...

An optical illusion due to the physiologist Ewald Hering in 1861. The two horizontal lines are both straight, but they look as if they were bowed outwards. The distortion is ...

The Hermite constant is defined for dimension n as the value gamma_n=(sup_(f)min_(x_i)f(x_1,x_2,...,x_n))/([discriminant(f)]^(1/n)) (1) (Le Lionnais 1983). In other words, ...

The numbers H_n=H_n(0), where H_n(x) is a Hermite polynomial, may be called Hermite numbers. For n=0, 1, ..., the first few are 1, 0, -2, 0, 12, 0, -120, 0, 1680, 0, ... ...

A Hermitian form on a vector space V over the complex field C is a function f:V×V->C such that for all u,v,w in V and all a,b in R, 1. f(au+bv,w)=af(u,w)+bf(v,w). 2. ...

A Hermitian metric on a complex vector bundle assigns a Hermitian inner product to every fiber bundle. The basic example is the trivial bundle pi:U×C^k->U, where U is an open ...

A Hessenberg matrix is a matrix of the form [a_(11) a_(12) a_(13) ... a_(1(n-1)) a_(1n); a_(21) a_(22) a_(23) ... a_(2(n-1)) a_(2n); 0 a_(32) a_(33) ... a_(3(n-1)) a_(3n); 0 ...

A hexahedral graph is a polyhedral graph on six vertices. There are seven distinct hexahedral graphs (illustrated above) which, through duality, correspond to seven convex ...

The hexanacci numbers are a generalization of the Fibonacci numbers defined by H_0=0, H_1=1, H_2=1, H_3=2, H_4=4, H_5=8, and the recurrence relation ...

There are at least two distinct (though related) notions of the term Hilbert algebra in functional analysis. In some literature, a linear manifold A of a (not necessarily ...
